I've been buying my girl's Kidney Care Formula from Chewy ever since I found out about them. She loves it and it makes my life easier having it delivered. Plus it's cheaper online if you do auto ship, then you don't have to think about it, it just shows up at your door on the day you set up.

i have tried for over two weeks to get my do to eat this. He is in stage 2 renal failure. At best I can get him to eat 10 kibbles a day. He needs half a cup according to the vet.

Love/Hate Relationship

When our dog was diagnosed with kidney disease, we immediately chose to switch his food from Earthborn Venture to Hill's k/d. We bought the small bag to start, in case he didn't like it. The food, to me, smelled terrible, but our dog loved it, so we decided to order the large bag, available from Chewy for $87.39 on autoship. Meanwhile, as we worked our way through the small bag, our dog liked it less and less. We tried adding pumpkin, broccoli, or green beans (all of which he loves), but he was still reluctant to eat the food. Now, we are adding 1/2 can of Hill's k/d canned food to the dry, and he seems to like it much better...at least for now.

She will eat this when hungry

Good food but...

This food was advised by my vet when we found that my againg dog was starting to have kidney issues. The price however is enough to give one a stroke. If somone is on a fixed income the poor dog might not get the food. Your folks were so helpful and pointing there was another food available, less expensive and if my vet OK'd it we could change my order to this food. Now how many people go out of their way like that.
I've always been happy to work with the Chewy folks-- they really are dog friendly

Dog doesn’t like it

By Karen

Initially, for about 2 weeks, my dog ate this. Now, he doesn’t like it. So far we are wetting it and mixing in a little bit of tuna or bacon grease to get him to eat it. He is a Schipperke and seems to be maintaining his weight, but it is additional work to fix his food. Any suggestions?

Brandon happy

Brandon is 12 years old but still acts like a puppy. He just loves his new food. His energy level has increased. Maybe this food is less filling though as I have had to increase his daily intake. Hungry, hungry, hungry!!

High hopes but dog said no thanks!

Was hoping my dog would like this, but she would hardly touch it even when mixed with wet food! It has a very strong smell/odor. Funny enough, my cat loved the food and would sneak bites of it. Maybe better for cats, but my dog was not a fan.

I wish Chewy carried the other protein options

By Luka

Arrakis has early onset kidney disease, so my options for feeding him are few. I tried Royal Canin, but he only ate it for about two weeks before he began refusing it. I switched to this in the hope that it would be better received. It hasn't been. He ate this for about two weeks as well and has began refusing it too. Both are chicken based, and I think he has issues with chicken. I'd like to try other proteins, such as lamb, or fish, but Chewy only carries the 8lb bag of lamb, and nothing for fish. My boy is a 75lb husky mix and a bag that small won't work for me. I may have to order through my vet instead, at greater cost.
